Scotland Adjusts Lineup for England Clash as Wills Steps In for Injured Orr

Scotland has made a key change ahead of their Six Nations match against England at Murrayfield on Saturday, with Evie Wills from Sale Sharks stepping in for the injured Emma Orr. This marks just one alteration from Scotland's recent victory over Wales, where they triumphed 24-19. Fran McGhie, a well-regarded wing from Trailfinders, will start on the bench as she continues her recovery from injury. Consequently, Shona Campbell, who celebrated her first try for Scotland in Cardiff, retains her position on the left flank. Among the substitutes, Rachel McLachlan from Montpellier returns to the squad, while Rianna Darroch from Glasgow Warriors is poised to potentially make her debut as a replacement. Emily Coubrough, also from Glasgow Warriors, holds onto the number eight jersey after earning her first cap in the previous match. Notably, it was confirmed that influential center Emma Orr will miss the remainder of the Six Nations due to a knee injury sustained against Wales. Sione Fukofuka, Scotland's head coach, has called up Holly McIntyre from Montpellier as a replacement, although she will not be on the bench for this match.
